Some Herbal and Home Remedies for Pneumonia

Turmeric - Take a thick cloth and make four folds of it. Between the third and fourth fold, spread a layer of turmeric. Now mix this turmeric in lukewarm water and sprinkle over the cloth to make it partially wet. Now put this cloth on the chest of the patient, heat a brick and put it over the chest of the patient to stimulate his chest, when the heat from the brick reaches the chest, it would nullify the pneumonia effect.

Also take 1 gm of black pepper, five cloves and 1 gm of edible soda. Boil it in 15 ml of water. When it is drinkable, make the patient drink it by sipping, for early relief.

Garlic - Another good herbal remedy for pneumonia. The main thing that it does is that it brings down the body temperature, thereby helping you to cure pneumonia. A paste of garlic can also be applied externally on the chest, which will do the same work as taking orally.

Sesame Seeds - Sesame seeds can also act as a good herbal treatment for pneumonia. Take out an extract of sesame seeds, by steeping 15 gm of seeds in 250 ml of water. A mixture of this extract, a tablespoon of linseed, a pinch of common salt and a dessertspoon of honey, can be given to the suffering patient everyday. This will help him in treating pneumonia fast.

Turpentine Oil - The pain of pneumonia can be relieved by applying turpentine oil over the rib cage and wrapping a warm cotton wool over it.
